N2 - A general expression is derived for the effect of a solute on the average number of fully hydrogen-bonded molecules in liquid water. Arguments, based on the Kirkwood-Buff theory of solutions, are given in favor of the contention that in liquid water, a simple non-polar solute may increase the average number of hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, this effect is likely to be unique to aqueous fluids.
